Fact Finder wrote:Judicial Watch: New Clinton Emails Show Classified Information Sent to Clinton Foundation Employees
June 1, 2017
Emails also show Abedin providing government plane and hotel reservations to Chelsea Clinton for trip to Germany while employed at Clinton Foundation
Abedin tells Band that she has ‘hooked up’ people from the Russian American Foundation with ‘the right people’ at the State Department
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released 2,078 pages of documents revealing more instances of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sending and receiving classified information via an unsecured email server. They also show Clinton’s daughter Chelsea and others involved with the Clinton Foundation receiving special favors from Huma Abedin, the former secretary’s deputy chief of staff.
The records were obtained in response to a court order from a May 5, 2015, lawsuit filed against the State Department ( Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)) after it failed to respond to a March 18, 2015, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking: “All emails of official State Department business received or sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009 through February 1, 2013 using a non-‘ state.gov’ email address.”
The new documents included 115 Clinton email exchanges not previously turned over to the State Department, bringing the known total to date to at least 432 emails that were not part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department. These records further appear to contradict statements by Clinton that, “ as far as she knew ,” all of her government emails were turned over to the State Department.
On December 6, 2010, Secretary Clinton shared classified information with non-U.S. government employees Justin Cooper , then-aide to President Clinton who helped manage Hillary Clinton’s unsecure email system, and Clinton Foundation director Doug Band (neither of whom held security clearances). The email instructs her aide Oscar Flores to “print for Bill” (presumably Bill Clinton). The email exchange, which involved allegations of the theft of foreign aid by Bangladeshi banker and major Clinton Foundation donor Muhammad Yunus, started with an email from an unidentified person to State Department official Melanne Verveer, who forwarded her exchange on to Hillary Clinton, who then sent it on to Flores, Cooper and Band.
Yunus was accused of embezzling $100 million from the Grameen Bank he founded and was removed from it, although the charges were never proven, and Yunus reportedly returned the money. Subsequently, Clinton’s State Department was accused of threatening IRS action against the Bangladesh prime minister’s son in an attempt to stop a Bangladesh government investigation of Yunus.
In a similar instance on March 14, 2011, State Department official Maria Otero emailed Clinton information about the Grameen Bank/Foundation that was again deemed classified as Confidential by the State Department and redacted under FOIA exemption B1.4(D) – “Information specifically authorized by an executive order to be kept secret in the interest of national defense or foreign policy … Foreign relations or foreign activities of the United States, including confidential sources.” Clinton then responds to Otero using her HDR22@clintonemailcom account and copies Abedin on Abedin’s unsecure email account, huma@clintonemail.com.
In May 2010, Ben Ringel, whose donations to the Clinton Foundation Judicial Watch previously documented , asked Abedin to intervene in an employment dispute on behalf of a USAID employee. Abedin agreed, telling Ringel to forward the woman’s documents to her official State Department email account.
In a May 21, 2011, email exchange sent to Abedin’s unsecure account, then- Ambassador Princeton Lyman sent information relating to his conversation with South Sudan President Salva Kiir Mayardit that is also redacted and classified as “Confidential.”
On July 17, 2012, Abedin forwarded to her private email account for printing a call briefing sheet for Clinton’s upcoming call with Joint Special Envoy Kofi Annan, which was classified Confidential and redacted under FOIA exemption B1.4(D).
The new Abedin emails also reveal additional instances in which Clinton’s then- scheduler Lona Valmoro forwarded the former secretary of state’s detailed daily schedule to top Clinton Foundation officials.
The new emails also reveal a number of favors that were requested and carried out.
In May 2010, Abedin tells Band that she has “ hooked up ” people from the Russian American Foundation with “the right people” at the State Department after Abedin received a request from Russian American Foundation Vice President Rina Kirshner, forwarded by Clinton Foundation donor Eddie Trump (no relation to President Trump).

fyi – we hooked her up with the right people here
The Russia-American Foundation was staffed by Clinton political supporters and operatives, received over $260,000 in grants for “public diplomacy” from the Clinton State Department, and its leadership was supportive of Obama’s Russia policies.
In July 2011, when Chelsea Clinton, using the alias Diane Reynolds and the email address dreynolds@clintonemail.com, was planning to fly to Germany to see the U.S. women’s soccer team play, her travel agent asked Abedin to confirm that Chelsea’s travel costs could be placed on her parents’ credit card. In response, Abedin tells the agent that she can “stand down” from making arrangements to get Chelsea to Germany, as Chelsea and Bari Luri, Chelsea’s Clinton Foundation chief of staff, would be made part of the “ official delegation ” going to the match and she would “fly on official govt plane both ways and they will take care of hotels and all transportation.” Chelsea was a fully employed Clinton Foundation executive at this time.
In July 2011, Clinton tells Abedin that she doesn’t wish to fly on the same airplane with Michelle Obama on their way to Betty Ford’s funeral: “I’d be honored to speak. Is it ok that we and Mrs. O take two separate planes?”
A December 15, 2012, email chain shows that a committee of Clinton staffers, including Cheryl Mills, Huma Abedin, Jake Sullivan and Philippe Reines, was required to draft a “doctors statement” as to why Hillary supposedly fainted due to “dehydration,” causing her supposedly to hit her head and suffer a “concussion” in December 2012. The same committee then prepared a “ discharge statement ” when Hillary was released from the hospital.
“These shocking new Clinton emails show why the Justice Department should reevaluate, reopen, or reinvigorate Clinton, Inc. investigations,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The casual violation of laws concerning classified material and noxious influence peddling show the Clinton State Department was ‘corruption central’ in the Obama administration. No wonder Clinton’s allies in the State and Justice Departments had been slow-walking and hiding these emails.”

My God, Putin all but admitted it recently.
Say what, talk about believing outlandish nonsense!Vladimir Putin fights election-tampering accusations with his own shots at US
Fox news
June 2, 2017
Russian President Vladimir Putin turned the tables on claims the Kremlin meddled in the U.S. presidential election, with a feisty Putin on Friday accusing American spies of “crude and systematic” widespread interference in Russian affairs.
Putin, speaking at an economic forum in St. Petersburg moderated by NBC’s Megyn Kelly, said the probe into Russia’s alleged attempts to influence the election via collusion with President Trump’s campaign team was merely “hysteria,” Reuters reported. He even tried to calm an inquisitive Kelly by asking: “Isn’t there a pill they can give you?”
He also compared the anti-Russian sentiment in the U.S. to anti-Semitism.
“It’s like saying everything is the Jews’ fault,” said Putin, who placed the blame for Hillary Clinton’s November loss squarely at the feet of the Democratic presidential candidate and members of her party.
Putin deftly brushed off questions about meetings that members of the Trump campaign – including then-Sen. Jeff Sessions – had with Russian diplomat Sergey Kislyak.
So our ambassador met someone. That's his job. That's why we pay him,” Putin said, according to a translation. “So what? What's he supposed to do, hit up the bars?”
He described the focus on Kislyak's contacts as “catastrophic nonsense.”
What day is it?
"I take responsibility for every decision I made, but that's not why I lost."

CONCERT 'TERROR' EVACUATION German music festival Rock am Ring evacuated after cops warn of ‘terror threat’
Organisers asked all attendees to leave the Rock am Ring festival in Nuerburg, Germany, following what they say was a security warning by police.
Koblenz police said they had received information of a “concrete threat” against the event.
In a statement, cops said they were in possession of “concrete elements, in the light of which a possible terrorist threat cannot be ruled out”.
It added: “As safety is the key priority and any danger to festivalgoers has to be avoided as much as possible, a decision has been taken to suspend the festival for today.”

Again, as always, your analysis is the same drivel that was repeated endlessly on the media. All you do is regurgitate inch-deep analysis by paid hacks. Anyone who read or watched the whole speech could tell that she was clearly trying to sound like a Le Pen or Trump-style nationalist.
"And that is why I can only say that we Europeans must really take our fate into our own hands—of course in friendship with the United States of America, in friendship with Great Britain and as good neighbors wherever that is possible also with other countries, even with Russia.But we need to know that we have to fight for our own future and destiny as Europeans."

As far as I am aware nobody was murdered. Shots were fired by a gunman. Obviously, nobody should grab a AR-15 and take justice into their own hands based off an Alex Jones report. However, those who are intellectually honest must admit that the images on the Comet Pizza social media pages were inappropriate, disturbing, and child-exploitative in nature. On the internet, stuff like that is fuel for the fire of a paranoid mind.

It is apparent that Rich had some sort of communication with Wikileaks. His murder also remains unsolved. What is fake about that?

Kathy Griffin's photo-shoot reminds me of the "Wanted for Treason" flyers that were distributed in Dallas shortly before JFK was murdered. The Left has normalized violent language against the President. Every day Keith Olberman signs off his videos telling Trump to "resign or be removed." Madonna was talking about blowing up the White House . Even Colbert's homophobic "cock-holster" joke was also a new low in network broadcasting. As proven by Griffin's whimpering press conference today, you are all a bunch of pussies. When actually taken to account for your behavior, you play the victim card.

So a couple of things....Nungent WAS roundly condemned for those comments.
He is also not a CNN host.
Petitions were drafted by the Left to boycott Nugent
and the Secret Service looked into his comments.
What more do you want?
Nobody expects the "Motor City Madman" to be a profile in subtlety.

To kill more Americans for the Nazi's, like the V2 rockets you mentioned.

Built for Nazi Germany to get around quicker to the Countries they planned to invade, and supply prison camps. In other words, it's a good thing they got their ass kicked, although I'm sure you'll disagree.

Odysseus tells him to fight but to remember that to be angry is the easy way. That to be angry at the right time, in the right place, at the right person - THAT is hard. Telemachus gets his butt kicked and is extremely frustrated - and angry. Someone hands him a knife and tells him to not take this shamefull abuse any longer. Odysseus , disguised as an old beggar, turns his back to the fight and yells, "NO! To be angry is easy!" Telemachus drops the knife and walks away. They meet and clean the blood off of Telemachus face. Odysseus says, "You did well. There is no shame in this."
